Yesterday was doing, today was being. We discussed various character qualities that leaders possess. The top ten follow: humility, commitment, integrity, faith, obedience, courage, wisdom, compassion, perseverance, and vision. So our task today is to figure out which we are strongest in and which we are weakest in.
I believe I am strongest in integrity. For some reason unknown to me, I simply cannot stand in my conscience anything that is not one hundred percent honest. Deviating in any way from the truth of the matter drives me insane. Sarcasm, jokes, games, pretending even, all drive me nuts while others don’t really care. So in everything I do I want to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help me God. If I don’t, it bugs me big time.
The area I am weakest in is wisdom. On the occasion that God gives me a glimpse of wisdom, I realize how little I have. And God doesn’t have a “Wisdom Accelerator” program so I can speed up the process, either. It takes years to grow in wisdom, and I shall have to wait and be open to the teaching of the Spirit through the Word. I trust that He shall teach me. So help me God, Amen.
Wow... we're more complete opposites then I realized.... Integrity is an issue I often struggle in.....
